What Will Black Friday 2025 Tell Us About American Consumers?

Black Friday, the ultimate consumer holiday, has lost some of its luster in recent years as Americans become increasingly indebted, cash-strapped, and hamstrung by high inflation. Known as an all-out buying bonanza where shoppers flood retailers for deals on everything from TVs and toys to kitchen utensils, this year all signs point to a muted […]

Peter Schiff: Fed Cuts Signal a Weak Economy

On Tuesday’s episode of the Peter Schiff Show, Peter contends that the recent market bounce is being driven less by real economic strength and more by Fed signaling that rate cuts are coming.

Schiff on Market Overtime: Bitcoin Looks Vulnerable

In his latest appearance on Market Overtime, Peter lays out a clear wager: central banks are quietly rebuilding their gold reserves while Bitcoin faces structural risks that could trigger a rapid collapse.

Schiff on Reinvent Money: Bitcoin Crash May Hurt Trump

Risk-Off Rotation: Tech & Crypto Decline, Gold & Silver Shine

Wild week for precious metals: despite violent intraday swings, gold still closed up ~2.2% around $4,080 and silver up ~4.7% above $50—with silver briefly tagging $54+ overnight. The key: $4,000 is acting as gold’s new floor (just like $3,000 became the new $2,000), and $50 is emerging as support for silver. Meanwhile, risk is coming […]
